Abstract

In this paper, a linear stability analysis is studied for Rayliegh-Benard problem with the effect of magnetic field, a perturbation equations is solved numerically by using spectral Chebyshev tau method, the boundaries are considered both are free, both are rigid, the lower is free and the upper is rigid, the results were illustrated graphically and compared with previous studies.
